It worked, thank you JeremyB!
Re: No Wifi on Hp Bw088ax with mint 18.3 clean install
Worked for me as well on my new HP Laptop 17-ak0xx.
Thanks Jeremy. Could you please explain what those commands did. I'm still trying to learn!

Re: No Wifi on Hp Bw088ax with mint 18.3 clean install
Basically we just copied source code from github and used dkms to compile and install it. When you use dkms it will normally recompile the source code when you install a newer kernel as long as you stay within the same kernel series, like if you have 4.4.0-52 and update to 4.4.0-112 will usually work but I would expect it to fail if you went from 4.4.0-52 to 4.13.0-32 but it all depends on the source code and what kernel changes were made
Re: No Wifi on Hp Bw088ax with mint 18.3 clean install
Thanks, I upgraded to 10.13.0 before following your instructions.

Re: No Wifi on Hp Bw088ax with mint 18.3 clean install
Hi JeremyB,
i just updated to 4.15.0-38 and now I have the same issue again. Can you help again?
Is the wifi driver overwritten with every kernel update?
your repository rtl8723de on github apparently doesnt work with kernel 4.15:

For the 4.15 kernels use

sudo apt-get install dkms git build-essential
git clone -b extended https://github.com/lwfinger/rtlwifi_new.git
sudo dkms add ./rtlwifi_new
